Abstract:
|
This article presents the analysis of two topologies
of power converters. Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) and Current
Source Inverter (CSI) proposals for traction system applications,
these topologies are implemented with silicon carbide devices.
The use of SiC semiconductors allow working at high switching
frequency (100KHz), increase the working temperature range
and decreasing power losses during conduction and activation of
the semiconductors.
The objective is analyze these topologies and select the one that
provides the best performance and behavior at high frequency
to improve it on a electric traction system. |
